Larry needs to score 33 points in the last game to have an average of 25 PPG.

To find the answer, we can solve the equation:

\frac{(4)23+p}{5}=25

<em />(where <em>p</em> is how many points he needs to score in the last game)

To find the mean of a group of numbers, you add them all up and divide the total by the number of numbers there are. Since Larry averaged 23 PPG in 4 games, we can multiply 23 by 4 to get the total of the first 4 games from the data. Then, we find <em>p</em>, which we will add to get our final total. Then, you divide by the 5 games.

\frac{(4)23+p}{5}=25
\frac{92+p}{5}=25
{92+p}=125
p=33

First, I simplified 4 x 23 to get 92. Then, I multiplied each side by 5 to get rid of the denominator. Finally, I subtracted 92 from each side to isolate <em>p</em>, and found that <em>p</em> = 33.

Answer:

Multiply 5 by 25 to find the total points Larry needs to score in 5 games. 5 x 25 = 125. Then find the total points Larry scored in the first 4 games. 4 x 23 = 92. Subtract to find the number of points Larry needs to score in the fifth game. 125 – 92 = 33 points. Larry needs to score 33 points in the last game.

Can someone explain this to me please will give brainliest

The answer is A. for this, you have to set up a system of equations. the first one will be the area equation. since you know area=length x width, your equation will be LxW=50. the next equation is L=2W, since the length is two times the width. then, plug in 2W for the L in the other equation and you get 2W^2=50. divide by 2 and get W^2=25. square root both sides and you get W=5. plug back into the other equation to find L=10. Then, add the sides of the rectangle for the perimeter. 10+5+10+5=30.
